Nogizaka46’s Tsutsui Ayame, who is gaining momentum as an actress and is currently appearing as one of the two leading roles in the Thursday drama “Mass-Produced Luka – The Blue Counterattack of the Plastic Model Club Members” (TV Tokyo), will be appearing on the cover and front fashion page of “bis” for the third time in about a year and a half. (This is her second solo cover appearance, and her third if you include her paired cover with Yoda Yuki.) When asked about her thoughts on being photographed in the autumn-inspired Fashion 7LOOK, she said, “This was my second solo cover shoot, and I was very happy. As always, the shoot was relaxed and fun. It was my first time shooting without knowing which styling would be on the cover, so it was fun to watch the staff members discussing things like, ‘Is this the cover?’ every time we took a photo.” In this interview, based on the theme of this issue, “Sentiment,” Ayame Tsutsui, who usually gives off a rather flat impression, delves into her emotions, including joy, anger, sadness, and happiness. She talks about the most emotional experience she’s ever had and how she overcame it. Also appearing in this issue are Sakura Kawasaki and Satsuki Sugawara, two juniors who admire Ayame Tsutsui!

At that moment, fellow member Kazu Inoue was sitting next to me, and I instinctively slapped him on the shoulder and said, ‘Listen to me!’ (laughs). I was so happy I wanted to share my joy with someone.” (Saku Sugawara) Produced by Tsutsui, the focus is on the duo’s “new brilliance.” Kawasaki wears all black and rimless glasses, giving off the image of a strong girl. Sugawara wears a baggy hoodie, a shirt, and a pleated miniskirt, transforming her into a schoolgirl from overseas. Ayame Tsutsui, who produced the two, expressed her joy, saying, “It was very moving and wonderful to be able to shoot with these two juniors. For the project they produced, I like the fluffy Sakutan, but I also wanted people to see a darker Sakutan. I paired the delicate Satsuki with an oversized hoodie and cropped bottoms, giving her a schoolgirl look.” The three of them talk is full of friendly anecdotes, including Tsutsui’s thoughts on Kawasaki and Sugawara’s charms, and secrets about Tsutsui that only Kawasaki and Sugawara know!
